By submitting an application to become a CEC Organizer, you’re accepting this license. You are required by the Circular Economy Club (CEC) to read and understand the following license before submitting your application.
1) Limited License:
When you accept this license, CEC will grant you a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license (the “License”) to use the CEC name, your CEC logo, trademarks, service marks, materials made available for reproduction on the CEC website and the specific event name (the “Event Name”) and local CEC sub-page assigned to your local CEC events (collectively, the “Intellectual Property”) only in connection with the CEC local events you run under this license.
Your use of the Intellectual Property must comply with the rules set forth here. The cost of the license for organize CEC local events is $0. CEC is a volunteer endeavour and you may not use your event to make money for yourself.
- The CEC team will send you a CEC logo specific for your city or organization which would have your city/university/organization name on it. By signing up to the Organizers program, you understand that you will need to use the CEC logo that the CEC team provides you with without altering the logo in any form (altering the logo includes adding new images or letters to it).
- You will follow the brand guidelines set forth in the CEC Organizers Toolkit.
- You may use your event to connect the circular economy community and generate pragmatic knowledge.
- You will share the photos of your events in the CEC online groups right after they take place.
- If you wish to hold additional CEC Events after a year from your application date, you must submit another application for such events through the CEC Organizers program.
- CEC Chapters should not start an organization named after their “CEC Chapter” name. That is, a CEC licensee cannot start an organization including the words “Circular Economy Club” nor “CEC”. We encourage CEC Chapters to open a non-profit type organization (e.g., an association) under a different name. That organization would be the CEC licensee and hold events and activities using the “CEC Chapter” logo and name. For example, CEC New York would run an association independent to CEC, and use the CEC New York license for the term of their license.
The term of this License will begin upon your application as a CEC Organizer. Applying to be a CEC Organizer means you accept these terms and you agree with all the content of the License Agreement. The term of this License will end upon the earlier of:
(i) CEC’s termination of your License and/or termination of access to your CEC Event sub-page at any time if you should breach any of the terms of this License or termination by CEC for any other reason, in CEC’s sole discretion; or
(ii) after a year from your application submission date.
The CEC Intellectual Property may only be used to promote your CEC local events, and in no event shall you, or any person or entity that organizes, participates in, use the Intellectual Property for any other purpose, including, but not limited to, the sale of books, articles, publications, audio recordings, videos or other media, without the prior written consent of CEC.
You may not transfer, sublicense or assign the License and/or your rights to use the Intellectual Property. You should seek advice from CEC on how to use the trademark according to the quality control CEC keeps. CEC may modify, amend, supplement and/or replace the terms and conditions of this License in writing at any time.
